Remember, we are creating the lives we're about to enter into.

I believe that what it is I have been called to do will make itself known when I have made myself ready.

Find what brings you joy and go there.

There's someone out there who needs you. You must live your life so that person can find you.

You can tell the real Christians by their acts. They are the ones serving, the ones loving, the ones sharing whatever they have. They are withholding judgment, offering compassion, being that light they want to see in the world. They are the hands and the feet of God on earth, vessels of holiness, chalices of generosity. The next time someone calls himself a Christian, look for these qualities for the living proof.
